BANTUM IN SESSION

After releasing ‘Legion’, one of the debut albums of 2012, Bantum recorded a session for Dan on The Alternative. Bantum (Ruairi Lynch to his friends & family) enlisted a strong cast of guests on ‘Legion’ Logikparty’s Benni Johnston, R.S.A.G, Owensie, Margie Lewis, and Eimear O’Donovan. Miss this session at your peril, Bantum is one of the most gifted artists/producers that this country has produced in many years. He's also on the line-up for the forthcoming Electric Picnic festival.

The enduring Opeth are back with a new album. ‘Pale Communion’ is definitely one of their best. They know exactly when to crank things up, and slow things down. The Swedish titans take another step forward in their quest for the perfect combination of Prog Rock, Classic Rock, and Metal.

JJ are also from Sweden, but that’s about all they have in common with Opeth! The word ‘mysterious’ seems to be following them around quite a bit purely because they were low key about their identity. They have thrown all sorts of sounds into their third album ‘V’, which takes you into their world – a fascinating adventure.
